hey I found an 86 CRX for sale and i can get it for about $550, but it needs a new hood, some welding on a fender, and some work on the nose. its silver and is a 5spd with a carb.do you think i should get it. they say they got it from an old woman. i am going to test drive it tomarrow. So give me some advice.So give me some thoughts and questions to think about while i decide to buy it or not

 

i dont know. for 550 for a running car, its not a bad deal. i personally wouldnt go older than 88, just for swapping purposes, but for a very first honda, that is not a bad choice.. my first honda was a 84 prelude, dual carb 1.8L.. i blew that up.. but it was my own fault.. if nothing else you could buy it to be the beater and save for a newer honda.
